On the rise

Good news - Malcolm's ANC was 47 today so we are hoping to go home tomorrow or Friday. His platelets jumped to 212 and his hemoglobin was steady at 76. We said goodbye to Grandma Lee today and hope to see her this winter when we travel to the farm for some much needed R&R and family time. Assuming Malcolm's counts continue to rise, we expect round six to start next week but we will not have to stay in hospital. He will be sedated for three lumbar punctures to inject chemo into his spine - each sedation will be a week apart. So we are expecting to be done with treatment in January!
